I have a question for you. I was making lunch today and noticed a squiggly wavy line on the side of my field of vision that was kind of shimmery. Then it spread to both my eyes on the same side of my vision field. It got a little bit bigger and then stopped and went away.
The whole think lasted probably about ten minutes. It was enough to freak me out. Has anyone ever experienced anything like this before. Could this be caused by my MS?

My first assumption would be to agree with the last poster. It is likely optical migraines, and as such is nothing to be overly concerned about. I would still recommend a full exam with your eye doctor to be sure.
